Timbalan KSU Perbendaharaan berkata isu dakwaan KKDW berbelanja melebihi peruntukan sudah selesai.
Kementerian Kewangan's Assistant Chief Executive Officer Zamzuri Abdul Aziz has declared that the controversy surrounding the Ministry of Rural and Regional Development's (KKDW) overspending of RM2.1 billion has been resolved, according to a spokesperson. This comes after the Putrajaya International Convention Centre (PICC) hosted the Baitulmal, Zakat and Wakaf (PPIBZW) 2026 Foundation Launch and Conference.
When questioned about the issue and Umno’s Working Committee Member of Parliament Razlan Rafii’s request for the Chief Executive Officer of Perbendaharaan, Johan Mahmood Merican, to clarify himself to Lim Guan Eng, Zamzuri stated, "I don’t know, but this issue is over." On September 4, Lim criticized KKDW for overspending RM1.8 billion in 2023 compared to the RM1.1 billion budget, RM2 billion in 2024 compared to the RM1.3 billion budget, and RM2.3 billion in 2025 compared to the RM1.6 billion budget.
He alleged that the total spending exceeded the budget by RM2.1 billion over the three-year period and urged for an investigation, including into Deputy Prime Minister and Rural and Regional Development Minister Zahid Hamidi.
